The first Bagless Day of the new academic year was on 15th April. Interesting and engrossing activities were planned for all children of grades 1 to 9. This included life skill building activities, art & craft activities and competitions.

A Show and Tell competition was conducted for grade 1 children where they presented their favourite things to peers and spoke about them. It was endearing to listen to their favourite things like soft toys, dolls, photographs, books, board games, and fruits. Some even spoke about the solar system, plants they have grown on their own and favourite sport. Later, the children were taken on a school tour where they were shown where the various activity rooms are along with the classrooms.

Grade 2 and 3 children had a Talent Hunt Competition where they got the opportunity to showcase their talents. They were thrilled to present their skills. Playing the keyboard and drums, dancing, singing, magic show, gymnastics were some of them. Next, they enjoyed learning origami and letter doodling.

Grade 4 children came forward with their own poems on the theme ‘World Water Day’ and enthusiastically participated in the poetry competition. The young poets enthralled the audience with their perfection and confidence.

Grade 5 children inspired the audience to take an action to protect the planet ‘Earth’ by delivering an Earth Day speech. The children presented themselves as an important component of the earth and spoke about its vital role in the formation the planet ‘Earth’.

Grade 6 children did research work and with great ardour participated in the PPT presentation competition. The theme for the competition was the ‘World Heritage Day’. This competition helped the students to enhance their creativity, speech and build team work spirit.

To cultivate a reading culture in the young minds, ‘Write a book review and design its cover page’ competition was organised for grade 7 children. The children showed their love towards reading and with all the fervour they participated in the competition. This competition boosted the children’s thought process and encouraged them to showcase their original thoughts through their writing and drawing skills.

To enhance the vocabulary of our students a ‘Spell Bee’ competition was conducted for grade 8 students. It was a spelling contest where students were asked to spell the words correctly with a varying degree of difficulty.

Our grade 9 students participated in the quiz competition. This competition was conducted in three different stages which covered the areas of Science, Maths, Current Affairs, Sports and GK.

Such a variety of competitions instilled a competitive spirit in our students which is the demand of the hour.

Life skills building is a new initiative taken up by the school this year. The skill building activities taken up for these children were laying of tables, sitting and eating etiquettes. The children learnt and practised them during their break time and gladly had food with their peers.

The children also learnt to do their daily chores by themselves like keeping their books in order in their school bags, polishing their shoes, non-fire snacks making and sewing. They enjoyed these basic tips of leading a happy life.

It was a great way to end their last day of school with such mirthful activities before the Summer Vacation!
